It is a complicated problem so we have avoided doing anything automated so far. If a user has 20 mins for a game, in theory he can use all 20 mins! For example, in even bullet games, sometimes I spend 30 seconds on one move... the opponent may think I have stopped moving, but I am thinking. If we automate resignation or have a pop-up saying "are you there?", this can be annoying when trying to concentrate.

I think the future solution (for when we have developer time and nothing more pressing to do), there could be some flags after a game for the opponent and the game... e.g. maybe you flag him as a non-mover or bad-sport after the game. If the person does this to enough players and is flagged for non-moving, then eventually he is considered a "non-mover" by the system.

What we do with that information is the next step - maybe ChessCube bans them, or maybe gives you a way to filter out non-movers in your seeks. Either should quickly stop this kind of behaviour.

But, yeah, that is a big feature, and would need a lot of thought and dev time...

I cant play at my laptop... the site opens.. I log in.. but then it gets stuck at %100 ... I tryed clearing cookies.. but it didnt work.. can someone help me pls ? (at the other versions it was the same..)

IF all that has been said and done really works that i must appreciate the hard work they put in after long for all this new features posting game and the more importantly is the random selection of color

- Warzone Tournaments: Users now have a maximum of 15 seconds to respond to Doubling Cube requests. If they do not, then the Doubling Cube is automatically applied and the game is resigned, meaning the winner wins double points, the loser loses double points. If you're paired against a non-mover, simply offer the Double Cube.

This feature is great, just what we wanted, but today when I played tourny it happened that this doesnt work. It happened when I was black, and white player didnt move. Doubling didnt take effect. Any thought? Did someone reported this before?

I would like something to be done to stop the ratings cheats.Every tourney I enter my opponents have ratings highs 250 or 300 ptshigher than their shown rating. I realize how this happens.. peopledropping out of tournaments after losing the first round.This should incur a penalty.Do it twice and you're banned for three months.

Elsewhere challenges over 100 cubits are usually made by sandbaggers..I get sick of this as I do the bullsh7t opening e3.
